another 2 weeks of hellofresh

hi guys! we ordered hellofresh again. this time they sent us a coupon for $50 off two boxes. so we decided to reactivate again, and also give them our new address so they'll stop mailing our apartment which will no longer be ours after this month. anyway, here's what we got this time! ~Lindsay ^.~
for those interested in the recipes below, please visit my google drive folder.

so, as i sit here modifying a copy from my post from earlier this year, i see that i talked about how the packaging changed, well guess who took pictures of all the aforementioned changes this time because a coworker was inquiring about the service...?

week 1 meal choices:

1. Lemongrass Chicken Legs
2. Crispy Cheddar Frico Cheeseburgers
3. Fig & Rosemary NY Strip Steak

Lemongrass Chicken Legs
paul made this. despite how simple this was, this was a quick and easy recipe. and it was delicious! the chicken had great flavor and it was nice to have bok choy again! we need to figure out where you can buy lemongrass. i'm sure you can get it at like whole foods... maybe one of the local international markets carries it too?

Crispy Cheddar Frico Cheeseburgers
i made this. this is the first time i've ever made burgers. granted, this recipe was literally take the meat and mold it, salt and pepper both sides. so i didn't do too much there... but this was a lot easier to make than it thought it would be! and we'll definitely make this one again!

Fig & Rosemary NY Strip Steak

i made this. i have developed an appreciation for fingerling potatoes. they're so cute and small! the sauce was really good for this, and i somehow managed to cook our steaks perfectly! we normally get thinner cuts, so i'm not used to cooking a thicker cut like this. anyway, this is another that we'll be making again!

week 2 meal choices:

1. Creamy Dill Chicken
2. Saucy Thyme Steak
3. Moo Shu Pork Tacos

Creamy Dill Chicken
paul made this. this was ok. i'm not huge into chicken breast, but the dill sauce made it better. and potatoes and green beans are potatoes and green beans..?

Saucy Thyme Steak

i made this. so i'm not sure i'd almandine my sweet potatoes again... but this dish was otherwise freakin awesome. the only problem with recreating this one is that we don't know what's in the beef demi-glace, maybe you can buy this in the store.. or there's probably recipes for it online somewhere.. anyway, it was really good!

Moo Shu Pork Tacos

i made this. this was super simple and easy to make! the hardest and most annoying part was chopping the mushrooms..which in hindsight, i probably could have put into a food processor.... anyway, this recipe was supposed to be like for 4 tacos, they sent us 6, and there was definitely enough filling to make two more, for a total of 8. no judgement. also, as someone who doesn't like mayo, hoisin mayo is really good, but maybe that's because i love hoisin already! but it was really good and we probably will make this one again too!

overall, these two weeks were pretty awesome. we picked out things that were relatively simple to make and we enjoyed pretty much all of them. so i'm very happy with these and now we've got some new recipes for later!
